If they are 10 or older they sell at auction for their lifetime payout. You can find that number on the horse's main page right by where it lists their daily payout. Yes as they age, that number should decrease, I believe. I hope that answers the question and makes sense.

But, in your friend's favor - you don't lose any total value if you hang onto him, it's just paid in installment instead of a lump sum. Also, if he's showing well and gaining points (especially if he leveled off in a high-value class), he may even make you more over the long run. Also, each time he survives rollover past his soonest potential death-season, that's a bit more that you'll get long-term than if you lump-summed him.
If, on the other hand, he leveled off and isn't earning points... well, other'n the rollover gamble, he won't make you much extra if you keep him, so sorry friend, you gotta go to free up a stall space. :-?

Ah he's a stallion! Yep definitely keep him and produce nice little show ponies.

Also if you want to keep some of his foals intact for a show herd, just don't run Breeding Advice on them & turn off testing so you don't accidentally run it later.

Oh those are good ideas. I hadn't thought to just not test them. Doh I'm so glad I asked!
